I’m sorry, but the lede on this broke me to the point of uncontrollable laughter. This is just so profoundly stupid, I don’t think Monty Python at their peak could parody this.

It’s also a lot of water to waste in the West, which is unfortunate.

    Thats terrible. Imo this was a blatant attack on California and nothing funny about it. The folks being hurt that voted for him also is just sad because they wont even complain about it because it outs them amoungst the cult

      Hope his supporters (and everyone else) enjoy the food shortages that’ll be caused by this in 6 months. That’s not a joke. That’s what will happen because of this. We’re going to have food shortages in the US this summer.
